The Whistling Debate
(I just discovered there was such a thing this morning courtesy of the Globe and Mail)
Too Little or too much? Seems to be the question at hand here.
On the one hand, whistling supporters say that it's a dying art, "why doesn't anyone whistle any more?" It's free, it's natural and it brightens up the day AND it relieves stress! But now (apparently) it's no longer "cool" to whistle and sadder still, whistlers aren't passing on the tradition to the youth. Sigh.
But some people would disagree....some say that whistling in the workplace can distract people from the task at hand by getting tunes "stuck in their heads". How horrible. This terrible affliction is know to Scientists as 'muscial imagery' and obviously has no place at work.
Thoughts anyone?
